At 91 years old, the Queen must be thinking about the day when she can hand the crown over to her soon for good. So it makes perfect sense that she would be sending him out to get a taste of what it will be like.

This week Charles and wife Camilla traveled to the University of Aberdeen to hand out The Queen’s Anniversary Prizes for Higher and Further Education, something the Queen has always done personally.

The monarch has more duties and responsibilities than any of us could possibly comprehend, and it’s no wonder that The Queen is showing signs of lightening her load. In fact, her husband, Prince Philip has officially backed off on his own duties. At 96, the Prince Consort has expressed a desire for things to settle down, proclaiming that he has “already done his bit.”
